Hi all, am just worried, I am about to apply for my ILR in couple of days, and I am presently on Tier 1 General, so I was trying to find the online point calculator from home office website, but I guess the non-organised home office has removed it while still accepting applications from that category, but anyway, does anyone know what to do to resolve this or if there's any link for people applying for ILR via Tier 1general, many thanks for any response. Cheers

As mentioned several times elsewhere in forum...
There is no longer an option for Tier 1 G on the PBS Calculator. You can use Tier 2 G instead

Also depends on what you are trying to achieve with the PBS calculator.

If are wanting to check how many points you earn for earnings, age etc, then you have to look at the relevant earnings/age table depending on the date of application of your Tier 1 EC . This table is present in the set(O) application form, and this information is also available in the Tier 1 G policy guidance notes.

If you are looking at using the PBS summary sheet to prove your degree (educational qualification) is listed and was taught in English, do as what CR001 has already advised, choose Tier 2 G.

Many thanks to you guys, and to the guys on competition, kudos to you all, but am not even using the calculator to prove anything, not for earnings, age, English skills, but was just wondering if it's not compulsory to include it since it has been removed and while I trying to use the Tier 2, the option sponsorship certificate was another trouble and other questions that follows the section.

If you are not using then why submit it. It is not compulsory to submit.
